Definitions

  • This invention relates to a disaster prevention monitoring and control facility.
  • a disaster prevention monitoring and control facility in which a receiver polls terminal units such as fire sensors, fire detectors, smoke eliminators, fire extinguishers, antitheft detectors or repeaters connected with those units to allow the called terminal unit to transmit monitoring information to the receiver, and the receiver collecting the monitoring information is known.
  • This facility transmits control information to the terminal unit called by the receiver.
  • a transmission error occurs between a receiver and a terminal unit in the disaster prevention monitoring and control facility of this type, there is a possibility, for example, that an area where there is no fire is erroneously judged, as an area where a fire has broken out or a terminal unit may erroneously evaluate a control command to operate a smoke eliminator or a fire extinguisher.
  • the prior-art disaster prevention monitoring and control facility described above performs a parity check to prevent a signal from the receiver to the terminal unit or from the terminal unit to the receiver from transmission errors.
  • the terminal units of prior-art polling type facilities only return data to the receiver.
  • the receiver cannot accurately know the type of data transmitted from the terminal unit.
  • the terminal unit for instance, erroneously returns the data of a tested result when the receiver, for example, instruct the terminal unit to return the data detected by a certain sensor
  • the receiver identifies the returned data as the data detected by the sensor.
  • the receiver erroneously judges the data.
  • a polled terminal unit does not reply in the prior-art disaster prevention monitoring and control facility, the terminal unit is continuously called a predetermined number of times (e.g., five times), and the next terminal unit is thereafter polled. When the final terminal unit is thus polled, a first polling cycle is finished. If the terminal unit which did not reply in the first cycle does not again respond in the second cycle, it is repeatedly polled a predetermined number of times (fives times in this example) until a response is obtained.
  • a process similar to the case of no response from the terminal unit is executed.
  • the terminal unit which has transmitted an error signal is polled
  • the terminal unit is continuously called a predetermined number of times, next terminal unit is thereafter polled, and if the terminal unit which has returned an error signal in the first polling cycle also returns an error signal in the second cycle, then the polling steps are repeated a predetermined number of times until a normal signal is returned.

  • European Patent Application No. 175, 170 is directed to an off-line notification in communication networks.
  • This invention has been made in order to eliminate such drawbacks, and for its object to provide a disaster prevention monitoring and control facility which can accurately check the erroneous transmission of a signal occurring between a receiver and a terminal unit.
  • Another object of this invention is to provide a disaster prevention monitoring and control facility which polls a plurality of terminal units from a receiver to read, judge and display terminal information from the terminal units or to control the terminal units, in which the receiver can accurately judge the type of data returned from the terminal units to the receiver.

       le dispositif de contrôle et de commande est un dispositif de contrôle et de commande pour prévenir un désastre;
       le récepteur est opératif pour transmettre une image de signal primaire constitué d'un signal d'adresse, d'un signal de commande et d'un signal de vérification d'image primaire (SM1), qui est une valeur ajoutée du signal d'adresse et du signal de commande, à l'unité terminale;
       un moyen de mémoire est prévu pour mémoriser au moins le signal d'adresse et le signal de commande tranmsis;
       l'unité terminale scrutée est opérative pour produire une valeur additionnée d'au moins le signal d'adresse et le signal de commande de l'image du signal primaire reçu, pour comparer le résultat au signal de vérification d'image primaire reçu pour juger s'il y a une erreur de transmission ou non, produire une valeur additionnée d'un signal de retour, tel qu'un code de donnée, d'au moins le signal d'adresse reçu et le signal de commande reçu pour former un signal de vérification d'image secondaire (SM2), et produire le signal de vérification d'image secondaire et le signal de retour en tant qu'image de signal secondaire;
       le récepteur étant opératif pour recevoir l'image de signal secondaire, produire une valeur additionnée d'au moins le signal d'adresse, le signal de commande et le signal de retour reçu mémorisé pour rassembler le signal de vérification d'image secondaire reçu pour juger s'il reçoit le signal sans erreur de transmission ou non de l'unité terminale.
  2. Dispositif de contrôle et de commande selon la revendication 1, dans lequel l'unité terminale est un répéteur, un capteur d'incendie, un détecteur d'incendie, un éliminateur de fumée, un extincteur de feu, ou une unité antivol.
